Littler was too strong for Michael van Gerwen in the final, 8-5. "I'm just very happy to win," said Littler. "I played well last night and I've played well again tonight - I've proven that I've got the ability to win.
He also finished with a flourish producing a nine-dart finish against Nathan Aspinall in the Quarter-Final to cap off a perfect tournament. "I've not picked a dart up since the World Championship final so I wasn't expecting anything, but I've won all my games, hit the nine-darter against Nathan and got over the line against a very good Michael van Gerwen.
"He is still one of the best if not the best, but I am just so happy to win on my debut.
"It has been unbelievable this week, the Asian qualifiers were great too but I am just happy to be the winner."
